Breathtaking images of horses, wildlife,cats, dogs and whatever catches my eye. Exploring the relationship between humans and what we call pets. Working animals such as horses that endure so much for our approval. Pets that ask so little but to be close to us. What we see in the eyes of these creatures is as close to heaven as most of us will ever get.
